Resources

We recommend that anyone who might get picked up by ICE -- regardless of residency status -- have an emergency plan to share with someone they trust. Remember, you don't have the same rights as people in criminal justice, so you might not get a phone call! Make sure you are planning to take care of yourself and your loved ones.

We also recommend the Immigrant Defense Project's Defend Against ICE Raids and Community Arrests Toolkit, the first comprehensive guide and organizing resource to fight back against the Trump administration’s efforts to criminalize communities and deport millions of people.

Detained is a comic book that explores immigrant detention centers in Washington state. Each side of the book is a continuous panorama depicting the interior of Seattle’s former INS building and The Northwest Detention Center in Tacoma. The book follows Gabriela Cubillos and Many Uch, two immigrants who were held in these facilities while facing deportation.
